Germany far-right AfD wins 43.8% in Saxony-Anhalt, putting Bitcoin one-year tax exemption in focus
Germany\'s far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) won a landslide in the Saxony-Anhalt state election, a result that could intensify political debate over Bitcoin\'s one-year holding tax exemption. While the state vote does not directly change federal tax law, the outcome is seen as boosting AfD\'s influence as it has opposed tighter taxation. The government plans to overhaul crypto-asset taxation from 2027 and is considering scrapping the exemption.
